Conceived to accompany Alexander Scriabin’s Prometheus: The Poem of Fire, Op. 60 (1910), the work takes fire as its subject, resolving into the form of a pulsing spark suspended above the orchestra.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\r\n\u003Cp>The installation draws on two cultural references: Prometheus, who gave fire to humanity, and Viracocha, the Incan creator deity. Together, they frame light as a carrier of knowledge and a medium of transformation. Amorós, a Peruvian-born American artist, has worked with light as both material and language since 2002, with RADIANCE extending this approach to an architectural scale.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\u003Cfigure>\r\n\u003Cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.grimanesaamoros.com\u002Fcdn-cgi\u002Fimagedelivery\u002F8b7Mr6loSNKbwTe7bBsNMw\u002Fgrimanesa-amoros-radiance-la-philharmonic-walt-disney-concert-hall-09.jpg\u002Fformat=auto,quality=85,w=1920\" alt=\"Radiance image 9\">\r\n\u003Cfigcaption>RADIANCE seen from the rear of the house during rehearsal | all images ©Grimanesa Amorós\u003C\u002Ffigcaption>\r\n\u003C\u002Ffigure>\r\n\r\n\u003Ch3>Programmable LED Light Sculpture Responds to the Orchestra\u003C\u002Fh3>\r\n \r\n\r\n\u003Cp>Measuring 60 × 35 × 5 feet (18.29 × 10.67 × 1.52 meters), the installation is constructed from reflective material, color-shifting rope-like LED tubing, and custom electrical hardware. A lighting sequence written specifically for the work controls its changing illumination.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u003Cp>A central aspect of the commission is the integration of the sculpture with Walt Disney Concert Hall’s existing house lighting. Artist Grimanesa Amorós programmed both systems as a single lighting environment, connecting the suspended sculpture with the architecture and the performance rather than treating it as an isolated object within the space.\u003C\u002Fp>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u003Cp>The sequence was composed second by second in relation to the orchestra and develops through six major synchronized moments.
